Procedures
Installation Procedures
New Systems
1. Unplug all electrical cords on your computer.
2. Remove the system unit cover.
3. Locate the AGP bus expansion slot. Make sure this slot is unobstructed.
4. Remove the corresponding expansion slot cover from the computer chassis.
5. Ground yourself to an antistatic mat or other grounded source .
6. Pick up the board (still in its sleeve) by grasping the edge bracket with one hand
and then remove the plastic sleeve.
7. Position the card directly over the AGP slot and insert one end of the board in
the slot first. Firmly but gently press the bus connector on the bottom of the card
down into the slot. Be sure the metal contacts on the bottom of the host adapter
are securely seated in the slot.
8. Anchor the board’s mounting bracket to the computer chassis using the screw
from the slot cover that you set aside previously.
9. Replace the cover on the system unit.
10. Connect your analog monitor’s 15-pin VGA connector to the card and fasten
the retaining screws (if any).
11. Connect other cables and devices if available -You are now ready to install the
software drivers and utilities.
Systems with Existing VGA Card
1. Change your display driver to Standard VGA.
2. Shut down your computer and unplug all electrical cords.
3. Replace the existing VGAcard with your graphics card.
4. Restart your computer.
5. Install the ASUS V7100 series display driver.
NOTE: This graphics card series can only be installed in motherboards with an
AGP slot.
WARNING!Computer boards and components contain very delicate Integrated
Circuit (IC) chips. To protect the computer board and other components against
damage from static electricity, you must follow some precautions.
1. Make sure that you unplug your power supply when adding or removing
expansion cards or other system components. Failure to do so may cause
severe damage to both your motherboard and expansion cards.
2. Keep all components such as the host adapter in its antistatic bag until you
are ready to install it.
3. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do
not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a
metal object, such as the power supply case. Hold components by the edges
and try not to touch the IC chips, leads, or circuitry.
4. Place components ona grounded antistatic pador on the bagthat came with the
component whenever the components are separated from the system.

Operating System Requirements
NOTE: This graphics card requires a motherboard with anAGP slot.
Windows 98
Windows 98 supports full Direct3D andAGP features. If you are still using the beta
version of Windows 98 and you want to fully take advantage the Direct3D andAGP
features, you must upgrade it to the release version before installing the AGP dis-
play driver.
Windows 98 includes VGARTD for the major chipsets but it is recommended that
you install VGARTD from the ASUSAGP-V7100 Series CD to make sure that you
have the latest version of VGARTD (see3.SoftwareSetup| InstallGARTDriver).
NOTES
•VGARTD stands forVirtual GraphicsAddress RemappingTable Driver, which
is necessary to use the DIME feature of AGP. DIME means Direct Memory
Execute, which is accessed directly by most AGP chips (when VGARTD is
installed) for complex texture-mapping operations.
•For other notes or release information, see the README files in the installa-
tion CD disc.
•This Manual assumes that your CD-ROM disc drive is drive D: and that
Windows is in C:\WINDOWS. Replace either with the actual location, if
necessary.
IMPORTANT!
•To avoiddamage to yourgraphicscard, unplug your computer’s power
supply before inserting your graphics card into the AGP slot.
•Make sure that the power supply of your motherboard can provide enough
electrical current on the 3.3V lead to maintain normal operation.
•TheASUS VR-100 Optional Upgrade Kit must be installed to enable the
the ASUS VR-100G 3D glasses to be used with the Pure models.
•Windows 98 and VIA Systems: If your motherboard has a VIA-based
chipset, the VIAVGARTD must be installed in normal mode.

motherboard does not use the Intel AGPset. Installing the AGP GART driver will
ensure that the AGPset’s AGP functions are available. Method 2 and Method 3 will
not install also the DirectX runtime libraries. DirectX must be installed so that your
video player can take advantage of hardware acceleration. See 3. Software Setup |
